Mission: The mission of the GIC is to serve as an intercultural resource on campus. Members promote institution-wide dialogues that raise awareness of the rich traditions and diversity within the Penn community while encouraging students to understand the importance of building a strong intercultural community at Penn.

Make new memories with old friends as the Greenfield Intercultural Center commemorates its 25th Anniversary with Gatherings across the Globe! For more than two decades, the GIC has been a source of support and education for Penn's diverse student body. Take the celebrations off campus and join other alumni and friends from across the globe in hosting a gathering in your community. No matter where you live and no matter what your style, hosting a GIC 25th anniversary gathering is a wonderful way to give back to a place that gave so much to us during your time at Penn.

If you are interested in hosting a GIC 25th anniversary gathering, please e-mail gic25thparties@gmail.com for more information and to receive our official anniversary planning guide.

In celebration of the GIC's 25th Anniversary, we would like to include some of the programs that you or your organization are planning for the Spring 2009 and Fall 2009 Semesters. If there are events that you would like to plan, celebrating the Intercultural work of the past, highlighting the vibrant diversity of todays Penn, or engaging ideals for the future of an Intercultural Community, please let us know. We are happy to provide support and we encourage collaborative efforts.

Please submit programs and inquiries to: ebuxbaum@upenn.edu or call 215-898-3358

We have a rolling deadline for programs but we encourage you to submit programs early for each semester (by Dec 14 for the Spring semester) and cannot guarantee that funds will be available for requests that come to us later next semester.
